Due to reasons I will not explain here further (ask me in private),
Poseidon keyfiles cannot be bought after 01-Aug-03. People having just
bought an USB card, that does not come with an OEM Licence, have the
chance to register Poseidon until the end of this month.
Support for existing users is NOT affected and will continue as usually.
It is recommended that dealers stop selling USB cards without licence to
avoid angry customers buying an useless piece of hardware, until the
vendor delivers his own software solution or the situation is solved
somehow.

Poseidon licencing ceasing on 01-Aug-03 : Comment 46 of 94 | ANN.lu |

Second : concerning me why I feel angry about elbox.. I was first a
elbox supporter, I bought mediator 1200 FastATA 1200, MMCD and a
Mroocheck (or whatever it has been called in other countries).
Concerning support, elbox is on of the worst company ever...The
mediator pass through was broken... I was waiting for 4 months to get
a new one... under guarantee of course...I can add that just 6 months
after having bought he mroocheck, the interface died.... Elbox so
announced support for Yamaha 744 sound cards... I so bought a board,
but support never comes...
On the other hand I'm a good friend of Open PCI coder Titan, and I
know what is his relationship with Elbox... very bad for a coder who
can help them having more customers...as elbox make him retire code to
support mediator in latest openPCI version...
I'll finally add that you should remember the P96 and RDB
trashing code story, too and the never released SharkPPC, never
concepted by elbox...
I just remember elbox employees : we're a hardware company not a
software company... spider, shark, soundblaster, realtek NIC, voodoo3,
oh, they didn't built cards... only drivers....
Concerning the email, i'm helping genesi, yes, but that doesn't mean
I'm an employee...
here's my employer website : http://www.colmarienne-des-eaux.fr sorry
in french only...
So that's why I feel angry against Hellbox... |
